Info: Escape Velocity is an open-ended, role-playing arcade game set in the future where interstellar space travel has allowed mankind to expand its reach to countless of unique solar-systems. The game is presented from a top-down, slightly isometric-view where you control one or more of the many space vessels the game has to offer. Traveling between the various different star-systems in the game is done through hyperspace travel, whereas sub-space travel is used for manual maneuvers such as landing/docking and space combat.

The main plot in EV revolves around a dispute between the "Confederation" and the "Rebellion". Depending on the players actions throughout the game, the two factions may or may not be affected at all. It is completely up to the player to decide whether to assist any of them or not.
